Relaxing in Hawaii in 1990 on my way back from touring Japan with Carole King. The music clip makes it. It’s Barney Bigard Sextet playing ‘Sweet Marijuana Brown’ with Art Tatum on piano! 1945.
Culture Is Our Business
When this photo popped up in my ‘random movie maker’ with Charlie Parker for a sound track. Robin, and Catherine at Carole’s birthday party 1992.
James Phillips would have taken the photo. His handy work (the z’s) written in the still-developing Polaroid.
These were the days when The Wild Blue Yonder was playing Lingerie and The Central. Bob and Maryann had an awesome Hollywood crib where they were filming the ‘Couch Concert’ series. Their band, Hollywood Wing Rats, were gigging as well. To keep a roof over our heads a bunch of us, including Danny Carey, were working in the AV Rentals section of Ametron. Oh man, these were some fun and crazy times.
